What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Striatal mRNA expression for preproenkephalin (PPE) and preprotachykinin (PPT) was studied in unilateral 6-OHDA lesioned rats treated subchronically with a range of selective and non-selective D-1 or D-2 dopamine (DA) agonists. Apomorphine (5 mg/kg sc), pergolide (0.5 mg/kg sc), SKF 38393 (5 mg/kg sc), SKF 80723 (1.5 mg/kg sc), and quinpirole (5 mg/kg sc), or 0.9% saline (150 microliters sc) were all given twice daily (except pergolide: once daily) for 7 days. The abundance of PPE mRNA was not altered by any of these DA agonists in the intact striatum contralateral to the 6-OHDA lesion. Only apomorphine and quinpirole increased the abundance of PPT mRNA in the intact striatum. In saline treated 6-OHDA lesioned animals PPE mRNA was elevated (+160%, p < 0.005) and PPT mRNA decreased (-36%, p < 0.005) in the denervated striatum. The up-regulation of striatal PPE mRNA in the lesioned striatum was reversed only by pergolide. The downregulation of striatal PPT mRNA in the lesioned striatum was reversed only by apomorphine. The differential sensitivity of the striatal PPE message to the long-acting DA agonist pergolide, and of the striatal PPT message to the mixed D-1/D-2 DA agonist apomorphine suggests that the striatopallidal enkephalinergic pathways are mainly regulated by prolonged DA receptor stimulation, whereas the striatonigral substance P pathways are mainly regulated by mixed D-1/D-2 DA receptor stimulation.
